This Town

[Verse 1]
In the holy bars of Europe I bowed and said amen
But when my eyes were open she had vanished once again
I chased her down the highway like lights across the sky
I was looking for perfection of a very basic kind

[Pre-Chorus]
You gotta get higher than you've been before
To knock on heaven's door
She could be anywhere

[Chorus]
This town is her town
Think I know my way around
Through the laughter and the lights

[Verse 2]
I was close to understanding, I never felt so fine
Thе angels leave on horsеback but the devils are all mine
I knew I'd live forever, I was flying down the years
Till I heard the sound of morning, breaking glass around my ears

[Pre-Chorus]
You gotta get higher than you've been before
To knock on heaven's door
Tonight she's everywhere

[Chorus]
This town is her town
Think I know my way around
Through the laughter and the lights
This town is holy ground
Nothing's gonna drag me down
This town is our town tonight

[Bridge]
Seems I'll never get away
From the bitten nails and the need to pray
Sweet familiar scent of danger
It's the constant pull of the stranger
God protect me from what I want
And these places that she haunts

[Chorus]
This town is her town
Think I know my way around
Through the laughter and the lights
This town is holy ground
Nothing's gonna drag me down
This town is our town tonight

[Fiddle Solo]

[Bridge]
Seems I'll never get away
From the bitten nails and the need to pray
Sweet familiar scent of danger
It's the constant pull of the stranger
God protect me from what I want
And these places that she haunts

[Chorus]
This town is her town
Think I know my way around
Through the laughter and the lights
This town is holy ground
Nothing's gonna drag me down
This town is our town
This town is her town
Think I know my way around
Through the laughter and the fights
This town is holy ground
Nothing's gonna drag me down
This town is our town tonight

[Outro]
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
This town is our town
Nothing's gonna drag me down
This town is our town tonight
This town is our town
Nothing's gonna drag me down
This town is our town (Drag me down tonight)
This town is our town tonight
